We are delighted that you are interested in our company. Data privacy is very important to Eigenland GmbH. The use of the Eigenland GmbH web pages is fundamentally possible without entering personal data. However, the processing of personal data may be required in order to use specific company services on our website. If the processing of personal data is required and there is no legal obligation for it, we will generally ask for the consent of the person concerned.
The processing of personal data, such as names, addresses, email addresses or telephone numbers always takes place in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulations and in accordance with the country-specific Data Protection Conditions that apply to Eigenland GmbH. Our company would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process with this privacy policy. Affected persons are also informed about their rights by means of this privacy policy.
Eigenland GmbH, as the party responsible for the processing, has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for the personal data processed via this website. Nevertheless, internet-based data transfers generally have security gaps and absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For these reasons, any affected person can provide us with personal data in other ways, such as by telephone.
The responsible body in terms of the data protection laws, particularly the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is:

We process your personal data only for the purposes named in this data protection declaration. Transferral of your personal data to third parties for purposes other than what is stated does not occur. We only pass your personal data to third parties if:
processing is required to fulfil legitimate interests and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding legitimate interest in not disclosing your data.
We adhere to the concepts of data avoidance and data economy. We therefore only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes mentioned here or as stipulated by the various statutory storage periods. After the respective purpose ceases to exist or these deadlines have expired, the relevant data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Providing your email address is sufficient to receive the newsletter. The data you provide will only be used for the purposes of the newsletter. Subscribers can also be informed by email about circumstances that are relevant to the service or registration (for example changes to the newsletter subscription or technical conditions).
We require a valid email address for effective registration. In order to check that a registration was actually made by the owner of the email address, we use the "double opt-in" procedure. For this purpose, we log the ordering of the newsletter, the sending of a confirmation email and the receipt of the response requested. No other data is collected. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter and will not be passed on to third parties.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called Cookies are text files which are stored on your computer and allow your use of the website to be analysed. The information collected by the cookie regarding your use of this website is generally transferred to a Google server in the USA and saved there. In the case of activation of IP anonymisation on this website, your IP address is shortened by Google within European Union member states or European Economic Area states. The full IP address is only transferred to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not combined with other data by Google.
The purpose of data processing is to evaluate use of the website and to compile reports about activities on the website. Other related services are provided based on the use of the website and the internet. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.
You can prevent the saving of cookies by making specific settings on your browser software; however, we would like to point out that in this case it may not be possible to use all functions of this website to their fullest extent.
Furthermore, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie is placed which prevents future collection of your data when visiting this website:
Further information on conditions of use and data protection can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or under https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/.
We would like to point out that the "anonymizeIp" code has been added to Google Analytics on this website in order to guarantee anonymous collection of IP addresses (IP masking).
We use the Facebook pixel from Facebook on our website. For this purpose, we have implemented a code on our website. The Facebook pixel is a snippet of JavaScript code that loads a collection of functions that allow Facebook to track your user actions if you came to our website through Facebook ads. For example, when you purchase a product on our website, the Facebook pixel is triggered and stores your actions on our website in one or more cookies. These cookies allow Facebook to match your user data (customer data such as IP address, user ID) with your Facebook account data. Then Facebook deletes this data again. The collected data is anonymous and not visible to us and can only be used in the context of ad placements. If you yourself are a Facebook user and are logged in, the visit to our website is automatically assigned to your Facebook user account. We want to show our services or products only to those people who are really interested in them. With the help of Facebook pixels, our advertising measures can be better tailored to your wishes and interests. Thus, Facebook users (if they have allowed personalized advertising) get to see appropriate advertising. Furthermore, Facebook uses the collected data for analysis purposes and its own advertisements.
For our website we use the Google Tag Manager of the company Google Inc. For the European area the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. This Tag Manager is one of many helpful marketing products from Google. Through Google Tag Manager, we can centrally incorporate and manage code sections from various tracking tools that we use on our website. In this privacy policy, we want to explain in more detail what Google Tag Manager does, why we use it, and in what form data is processed. Google Tag Manager is an organizational tool that allows us to incorporate and manage website tags centrally and via a user interface. Tags are small sections of code that, for example, record (track) your activities on our website. For this purpose, JavaScript code sections are inserted into the source code of our page. The tags often come from Google-internal products such as Google Ads or Google Analytics, but tags from other companies can also be included and managed via the manager. Such tags perform different tasks. They can collect browser data, feed marketing tools with data, embed buttons, set cookies and also track users across multiple websites.
We use Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) as an online marketing measure to promote our products and services. In this way, we want to draw more people's attention to the high quality of our offerings on the Internet. As part of our advertising measures through Google Ads, we use the conversion tracking of the company Google Inc. on our website. In Europe, however, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. With the help of this free tracking tool, we can better adapt our advertising offer to your interests and needs. In the following article, we will go into more detail about why we use conversion tracking, what data is stored in the process and how you can prevent this data storage.
Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords) is the in-house online advertising system of Google Inc. We are convinced of the quality of our offer and want as many people as possible to get to know our website. In the online sector, Google Ads offers the best platform for this. Of course, we also want to get an accurate overview of the cost-benefit factor of our advertising campaigns. That's why we use the conversion tracking tool from Google Ads.
But what is a conversion actually? A conversion occurs when you go from being a purely interested website visitor to an acting visitor. This happens whenever you click on our ad and subsequently perform another action, such as visiting our website. With Google's conversion tracking tool, we record what happens after a user clicks on our Google Ads ad. For example, we can see whether products are purchased, services are used or whether users have signed up for our newsletter. We have included a conversion tracking tag or code snippet on our website to better analyze certain user actions. Now, when you click on one of our Google Ads ads, the cookie "Conversion" is stored on your computer (usually in the browser) or mobile device by a Google domain. Cookies are small text files that store information on your computer.
At this point, we would like to point out that we have no influence on how Google uses the collected data. According to Google, the data is encrypted and stored on secure servers. In most cases, conversion cookies expire after 30 days and do not transmit any personal data. The cookies named "Conversion" and "_gac" (which is used in conjunction with Google Analytics) have an expiration date of 3 months.
You have the option not to participate in Google Ads conversion tracking. If you deactivate the Google conversion tracking cookie via your browser, you block conversion tracking. In this case, you will not be included in the statistics of the tracking tool. You can change the cookie settings in your browser at any time.
We use Usercentrics, a Consent Management Platform (CMP) on our website. The service provider is the German company Usercentrics GmbH, Sendlinger Straße 7, 80331 Munich, Germany. You can learn more about the data processed through the use of Usercentrics in the Privacy Policy at https://usercentrics.com/privacy-policy/.
We embed Vimeo videos on some of our pages. The operator of the corresponding plug-in is Vimeo, Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011 USA. When you visit a page with the Vimeo plugin, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. Vimeo is informed of the pages you visit. If you are logged into a Vimeo account, Vimeo can allocate your surfing behaviour to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account beforehand.
If a Vimeo video has been started, the operator places cookies which collect notes on your user behaviour.
If you have deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google ad program, you will not have to deal with such cookies when watching Vimeo videos. Vimeo also stores non-personal information about use in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser.
Further information on data protection at Vimeo can be found in the provider’s data protection declaration at: https://vimeo.com/privacy
We have embedded YouTube videos on our website. This allows us to present interesting videos directly on our site. YouTube is a video portal that has been a subsidiary of Google since 2006. The video portal is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you call up a page on our website that has a YouTube video embedded, your browser automatically connects to the YouTube or Google servers. In the process, various data are transferred (depending on the settings). Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all data processing in the European area. In the following, we would like to explain in more detail which data is processed, why we have integrated YouTube videos and how you can manage or delete your data. On YouTube, users can watch, rate, comment on and upload videos themselves free of charge. Over the last few years, YouTube has become one of the most important social media channels in the world. In order for us to display videos on our website, YouTube provides a code snippet that we have built into our site. As soon as you visit one of our pages that has a YouTube video embedded, YouTube sets at least one cookie that stores your IP address and our URL. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can usually assign your interactions on our website to your profile using cookies. This includes data such as session duration, bounce rate, approximate location, technical information such as browser type, screen resolution or your internet provider. Other data may include contact details, any ratings, sharing content via social media or adding to your favorites on YouTube. If you are not logged into a Google account or a YouTube account, Google stores data with a unique identifier associated with your device, browser, or app. For example, your preferred language setting is retained. But a lot of interaction data can't be stored because fewer cookies are set.
So that we can also communicate with you in social networks and inform you about our services, we are represented there with our own pages. If you visit one of our social media pages, we are jointly responsible with the provider of the respective social media platform within the meaning of Art. 26 DS-GVO with regard to the processing operations triggered thereby which concern personal data.
We are not the original provider of these pages, but merely use them within the scope of the possibilities offered to us by the respective providers.
As a precaution, we therefore point out that your data may also be processed outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. Use may therefore pose data protection risks for you, as it may be more difficult to protect your rights, e.g. to information, deletion, objection, etc., and the processing in the social networks is often carried out directly for advertising purposes or to analyze user behavior by the providers, without this being able to be influenced by us. If usage profiles are created by the provider, cookies are often used or the usage behavior is directly assigned to your own member profile of the social networks (if you are logged in here).
The described processing operations of personal data are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f) DS-GVO on the basis of our legitimate interest and the legitimate interest of the respective provider in order to be able to communicate with you in a timely manner or to inform you about our services. If you have to give your consent to data processing as a user with the respective providers, the legal basis refers to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DS-GVO in conjunction with. Art. 7 DS-GVO.
Since we do not have access to the providers' databases, we would like to point out that it is best to assert your rights (e.g. to information, correction, deletion, etc.) directly with the respective provider. Further information on the processing of your data in the social networks and the possibility of making use of your right of objection or revocation (so-called opt-out), we have listed below at the respective provider of social networks used by us:
